That was a fun song Phill, really enjoyed it, comments left of Sound Cloud for you smile     

Fantastic song written by you Jim and Jets60 loved how you covered it, well done to both of you smile     

So great to finally hear your voice both talking and singing.  I have to agree with TF, especially the acapella part at the beginning, definitely sounded like Joe Cocker.  Well done Bill, more, more, more smile     

easybeat ... nice, I like what you did with this one, it`s an oldie and a goodie.   Well covered! Extra points for being the first one to perform this month too big_smile

TF ...  thanks so much and sorry for my late reply, I have been away on holiday smile     

Will be putting this up tomorrow hopefully, sorry everyone for the lateness ...... I have been away on holiday.     

Oh oops yes neo lol yikes     

On that note everyone, sorry the next months FSOTM (which is now this month) is running a bit late as I have been away, so I will do my very best to post it tomorrow afternoon.  Apoligees for the lateness of it.     

Ok back from holiday, so having a catch up tonight.

neo ........... managed to get on tonight to listen, must have been a clinch somewhere in the system when I tried last time.  Ditto to what Peatle said, you give everything ago which in itself is great.  I thought of the two covers Crazy was the better.  I liked the the way you strummed it too.  The other song You and Me you covered seemed a lot harder as the vocals were a lot deeper in the chord you were singing it in.  A hard song to sing I think, so points for having a go at it smile

Roger.......... no worries, totally understand what busy is ..... it's been crazy busy here for the last 6 weeks here for me too.  Just when you get time, put it up as we would love to hear it  smile

As for your challenge to me for These Boots neo, I just haven't had time but I will attempt it at some stage when I have caught up with stuff here at home and post it smile
